Himanshu, 23 August 2017

Sony's IFA 2017 press conference is scheduled for August 31, and it's expected that the company will unveil the Xperia XZ1 and XZ1 Compact smartphones during the event.

Both devices may have been the subject of several leaks and rumors so far, but there have been no pricing-related info from a credible source all this while.

Well, that changes now, as reputed tipster Roland Quandt‏ (@rquandt on Twitter) has revealed the price tags for the handsets. As per a recent tweet sent out by him, the XZ1 will cost £599, while the Compact variant will set you back £499.
